Chapter 455 455 New Year's Eve

New Year's Eve, Baiyun Village.

Early in the morning, the whole village was full of joy. After breakfast, the villagers were busy with cleaning. Even though the living environment was very simple, everyone cleaned inside and out.

Afterwards, each household began to prepare sacrificial offerings and worship the ancestors.

The Song family had already completed these routines yesterday when the folks went to the market, and now the whole family is sitting in the main room, busy making the final packaging for the New Year lucky bags.

Although the village only distributed meat to everyone two days ago, who would think there is too much meat?
If the previous meat distribution was a public act, then the New Year's blessing bag distributed today is the common intention of the Song family and Xia Ning.

After all, as the leaders of the base, they should show something or two on such an important day. Even if the Song family doesn't say anything, no one will say anything, but if they really say something, it will bring the feelings of the whole village Nature is different.

It took the family half an hour to finally pack all the lucky bags for the Spring Festival.

"Okay, let's take these baskets out first."

Song's mother directed several men in the family to carry the baskets containing the New Year's blessing bags to the gate of the courtyard, and planned to start distributing the blessing bags to the villagers later.

"Mai Dong, is the table outside ready?"

Song Shaoqin also asked about his preparations. In addition to distributing Chinese New Year blessing bags today, they also had another important task, which was to write blessings on the spot and give them to everyone.

Originally, I planned to write it in advance and send it out today, but everyone felt that writing on the spot would make people feel full of sincerity, because the folks can see the process of writing blessing posts with their own eyes, which can be regarded as a fun Bar.

After all, there are hundreds of households in Baiyun Village today, so ten people were selected as representatives for writing blessings.

There are three representatives of the Song family: Song Shiyao, the leader of the base, Song Anbang and Song Shaoqin brothers.

Although Song Shiyao and Song Anbang are military generals, they are also proficient in some literature and ink. The father and son are not the kind of reckless men who only know how to fight and kill in the eyes of the world.

As for Song Shaoqin, let alone Song Shaoqin, he is also a well-educated number one scholar, and he will only be better than his father and brother.

The second room, Song Muyao, was a little lacking in writing and ink, and what he was most afraid of was writing with a brush, which was more uncomfortable than him killing someone with a knife. Before everyone could speak, he was automatically out of the game.

As for Song Jingze, who will only turn 14 in the next year, he is not considered because he is still too young.

Of course, the Wen family was indispensable for this matter, old man Wen, father and son Wen Yan, and the eldest grandson Wen Qingsong. Since the eldest son of the Wen family had a representative, Wen Da did not participate.

Then there are Sun Xiucai and Bai Yufu who are the teachers of the college. Today, the Bai family is not sending blessings as the Song family, but participating in the activity as a teacher herself.

The remaining two are the eldest grandson of the head of Village Li and Lin Wensheng, the original resident.

"Don't worry, Second Master, it's already ready."

Mai Dong responded with a smile, besides the tables and chairs, all the pens, inks and red papers were prepared one by one, and the ten representatives could write directly with the pens.

Xia Ning on the side ordered, "Huzi, go and tell Village Chief Li to beat the gong."

They had already greeted Village Chief Li and others in advance, and they were able to write and send blessings on behalf of them. Everyone naturally agreed, and now they are ready. Let Village Chief Li know, and he will let people knock The gong called the whole village together.

The location is naturally at the gate of the Song Family Courtyard.

Today is the New Year's Eve, and the two sales teams are also closed for rest. Last night, they settled the proceeds together.

In just three days, she earned 130 six taels of silver for the Spring Festival couplets she bought, and she had 740 three copper coins left.

And Lao Lai also sold charcoal and textile fabrics made in the village at the same time, adding 47 taels of silver to the public account of the base. Of course, the bulk must be on the charcoal.

The spun linen was sold to ordinary people, and the charcoal Lao Lai went directly to the wealthy households in the town, so the price was slightly higher. Otherwise, the dozen or so pieces of spun cloth alone would not have such a high profit.

Perhaps for those rich and powerful, the 100 taels of silver is not a lot of money at all, but according to the current consumption price, the purchasing power of 100 taels of silver is definitely very strong.

The daily expenses of ordinary families spend less than ten taels of silver throughout the year, which shows how long 100 taels can be used.

In addition, her business is a small business, but it is just some small things with a few pennies, so it is not possible to talk about making a lot of money. If she can get more than 100 silver, it is already beyond prediction.

This does not include her income from Li San.

In short, this New Year's Eve, she earned a fortune by staying at home, which made Song Yunxi and his brothers and sisters very envious.

Although they didn't get rich overnight, they earned it through hard work, which is better than nothing.

Of course, as the owner of the family, she naturally gave out benefits to those who followed her. Compared with the New Year gifts for the villagers of Baiyun Village, she also gave them an auspicious six-two-six red envelope.

"Boom~boom~boom~"

Soon, there was a burst of gong beating in the village. When everyone heard the assembly signal, they put down their work one after another. The whole family simply cleaned up and rushed to the assembly point together.

"What's the matter?"

"I do not know."

"I haven't heard what happened in the village?"

"This New Year's Eve shouldn't be a bad thing."

"Stop moaning, hurry up and gather."

"Go! You'll know if you go."

Within a quarter of an hour, hundreds of people gathered in front of the Song family compound, a dense crowd.

At this time, there was a row of long tables on the left side of the courtyard door. On the tables were pens and ink and a stack of square red paper. There were ten men of different styles standing in front of the long tables.

These ten people can be said to have taken over the most outstanding representatives of the men's team in the three age groups of the village, old, middle-aged and young.

And there is a round wooden platform at the entrance of the courtyard, and three or five people can stand on it. This is also to facilitate the people behind the crowd to see the person who is speaking.

On the right side of the courtyard gate, there are five bamboo baskets lined up side by side. Because there is a distance, the villagers can't see exactly what is in the baskets for a while, but only vaguely see a festive red in the baskets.

As for the female family members of the Song family, they stood by the baskets and waited. Those who distributed the lucky bags today included Mrs. Song, Song mother Su Lianying, eldest grandson daughter-in-law Xu Wanqing, the eldest daughter of the Song family Song Yunxi, and the second daughter Song Chuying.

This new year's lucky bag was originally Xia Ning's idea, and the Song family just helped with the packaging. She must be the one who distributed the lucky bag, but she handed over the job to Sister Ying.
